Some days I think the French have it right...I once saw a French TV show where a young lass had won a small lottery. Unsure what to do, she asked various relatives for advice...her wise old uncle told her to go for a nice fancy dinner...really expensive, top-of-the-line gourmet. She would have nothing left over to grow to dislike, but she'd always have the memory of a fabulous meal.
Tonight I had big-ass-beef-ribs topped with about 1/2 pound of crab legs. It was delicious! I topped it off with a nice slice of warm (but not hot) bumbleberry pie (with chunks of rhubarb and apple). Jen had St. Louis style ribs in Mesquite sauce followed by chocolate mousse. For the (somewhat high) price of this meal we had the first decent meal in the town we are hoping to move to. Well worth it.
For the record, the place was Sharky's Pub and Grille in Ladner. We went out there to do a pre-scope of a house we are going to go see in the next few days. It's the 'main' floor of a two story house, meaning it's the basement, but above ground. No guarantees that we'll take it, but worth looking at. I'd prefer a small townhouse or an apartment, or the top floor of a house (with full backyard access), but maybe this will be ok.
...watch them before your kids do...
